Will the fire collars installed in 2012 be legal when the new legislation begins in February 2025 or will new fire collars need to be installed?
I am an owner and strata committee member. Our strata building was built in 2012. Will the fire collars installed at that time still be legal when AS1851-2012 is legislated in February 2025 or will new fire collars need to be installed to comply with the legislation.
The collars if genuinely compliant in 2012 will remain compliant.
AS1851-2012 is the code for maintaining fire equipment, it doesn’t change the equipment or require any form of upgrade. The collars if genuinely compliant in 2012 will remain compliant.

I've been involved in strata since 2001, spoken at events, written training courses and been involved in committees. I am a regular contributor to SCA, FMA, OCN, LookUpStrata and Your Strata Property.
I’ve been in fire protection since 1992, a graduate of the Institute of Fire Engineers and an Accredited Practitioner (Fire Safety).
I’ve served voluntarily as VP of FPA Australia and on SCA’s NSW State Committee. I've represented FMA on the Building Commission’s Fire Safety Steering committee, and listed in the 2021 report into Fire Safety Reform. I am co-chair of the Strata sector of the Fire Safety Industry Reference Group.
I bring timely fire and related legislative knowledge transparently to the strata industry.
